I know this is somewhat of a general question,
I will go to Korea for either 7 days or 17 days (I'm thinking of splitting is to Korea 7 Japan 10)..
I am kinda lost with my Korea Itinerary.. Should I stick to Seoul and Pusan for the whole week? or are there any other must places along the way?
Thanks a lot!

Korea is a great country with a lot to see, and you don't give much to work with..
When are you coming? What are you interested in seeing/doing? What is your budget?
I'd advise browsing Korean Tourism Organization to help you get a feel for what you'd like to do first, then come back for some advice after doing that..
We spent 9 days there, all in the northern part of S Korea.
We had a couple of days in Seoul, then got the bus to Sokcho and spent a couple of days in the Seoraksan NP, then went down the coast to Jeongdonjin before getting the train back to Seoul, where we spent a couple more days, including a tour of the DMZ and a trip out to Suwon on the train.
We enjoyed it all and it gave us a bit of a taster for our first trip to Korea.
July / August is a good time to see Boseong tea plantation in the south western part of the peninsula, & Tapsa / Maisan could be included, as it's not that far away. Other spots to consider are Seoul, Busan, Beopjusa, Jikjisa, Danyang, Seoraksan Gyeongju, Ulleungdo & Jeju. Seogwipo was good as was Sunrise Peak. Was not so impressed with Jeju City.
hi amirelti, we spent almost 8 days in seoul & close areas to it.
